Just heard this on the radio. I'm not sure how i feel about his work, but i cant deny the guys talent especially in his early years.

They mentioned on the radio that he had fallen at home, went to the hospital and then found something that needed emergency surgery at the beginning of February sometime.

Well im a big fan of the show as are many people over here in the UK,

He has built some real amazing cars and he was always a pleasure to watch.

I initially thought that one of his former employees had a produce truck dropped on him or something.

Wiki says "Boyd died of a lacerated ulcer"

A sad loss to the auto restoration and modding community.

A star.
